Annotation

The origin and mechanisms of the South–Northdirected secular ocean tide are discussed. The average rates of the rise in ocean levels in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are determined. The secular tide of ocean waters from the Southern Hemisphere to the Northern Hemisphere that were predicted and discovered by the author in 2005 is caused by gravitation of the core, which drifts to the north relative to the mantle. This tide was reliably confirmed by modern studies of the coastal changes in ocean level. Further studies of this tide are important and may play a key role in understanding the asymmetry and inversion of many natural processes in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, as well as in explanation of the high endogenic activity of the Earth and other bodies of the Solar System.
